about

This track is from the original score composed for the ‘Empty Horizons’ audiobook, based on the ‘My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic’ fanfiction novel by Goldenwing.

Twilight is obsessed with finding out what brought about the watery apocalypse that left her home broken and drowned beneath a global sea, driven by the mad hope that unlocking this mystery might allow her to “fix” the past and save the world – her world – come Tartarus or high water. It sure would be easier without a parasitical voice in her head threatening to take control of her immense power for its own cruel purposes.

Another more intimate theme, I decided on a somber piano and a chamber string ensemble, as well as some dark synths in the latter half – my first time playing with synth sounds beyond a basic pad or two.
